The other is Richard Serra's torqued spiral, called "Joe" in honor of Joseph Pulitzer, which fills an outdoor courtyard.
The number after 144 is 233 from the pair 89, 144; 89+144= 233, and next is 144+233=___?, then that number that you get is used 233+___?= the next member, etc. "The Fibonacci Number Sequence" can describe a spiral called "The Golden Spiral" an ideal form used by designers.
We live in the wake of these classifications, in wine and hound alike, and, as naming feeds in a kind of virtuous spiral — call something similar to something else by a different name and you soon start seeing it as a different thing — one of the things I failed to talk about at length in that dog story is that we relate both to our dogs and the breeds our dog belong to.

A vivid example is a small, round 13th-century box with a configuration of spirals, called a "pommel scroll pattern," carved about a quarter-inch deep on its top: looking closely, you can see that the sides of the V-shaped grooves are striated by many fine layers of green, black and yellow.
However, occasionally these electrical impulses begin to travel around the heart in chaotic spirals called rotor waves a process called fibrillation that can cause the heart to contract in a disorganized way and prevent it from pumping blood.
In the end, the detail was sufficient to reveal certain key features, such as where the RNA had looped back on itself to form a double helix and where the amino acids of the proteins formed distinctive spirals called a helices.
At great distances, the rotation of the Sun twists the dipolar magnetic field and corresponding current sheet into an Archimedean spiral structure called the Parker spiral.
He proposed at a conference in Bristol in 1949 that spiral features called screw dislocations would provide a place for crystal growth to happen that could explain the observed rates.
She and a colleague were using a NASA satellite capable of detecting X-ray transmissions to study an already existing supernova in the spiral galaxy called NGC 2770, which lies some 88 million light years from Earth in the faint constellation Lynx.
In 1983 Barry Marshall, an internist from Perth, Australia, discovered that a spiral bacterium called Helicobacter pylori causes most stomach ulcers.
